Bea Binene has returned to teleserye acting through TV5's new series "Totoy Bato." It's her first drama on the Kapatid Network and under her current talent management team, Viva Artists Agency. She portrays the role of Emerald Espejo, Totoy's childhood friend who secretly lives a double life as an agent.

The action-drama series, topbilled by Kiko Estrada as the titular character, is directed by Albert Langitan, who also helmed TV5's "Lumuhod Ka Sa Lupa." "Totoy Bato" airs Mondays to Fridays at 7:15 p.m. on TV5's TodoMax Primetime Singko block, with a same-day catch-up on Sari Sari Channel at 8 p.m.

"This is my first serye again since I transferred to Viva," stated Bea. "I was with my home network before (GMA Network) for 18 years. I grew up acting in teleseryes and I think my last series was pre-pandemic. So, this is my first time to do a series in a while."

The 27-year-old actress signed with Viva Artists Agency in September 2022.
